Driving
6partially recharge the traction battery, without
affecting the charge level indicator.
Progressive Hydraulic
Cushions
This suspension system with progressive hydraulic cushions improves driving comfort by
filtering out the imperfections and demands of
the road surface.
Each shock absorber is equipped with a
hydraulic compression stop (at the base) and a
hydraulic rebound stop (at the top).
Depending on the intensity of the shock to be
absorbed, these stops provide the vehicle with a
greater freedom of movement or gradually slow
down the amount of movement in order to avoid
any sudden jolts at the end of travel.
Unlike conventional suspension which absorbs
the energy but then partially returns some of it,
this active suspension absorbs and dissipates
this energy, without producing any rebound.
Driving modes
The number and type of driving modes available depend on the vehicle’s engine and equipment.
Driving modes are selected using one of the
following controls, depending on version:




1. Pressing the control activates Eco mode. The
indicator lamp comes on.
2. Pressing the control activates Sport mode.
The indicator lamp comes on.
3. Pressing the control displays the modes on
the instrument panel.
The selected mode is activated immediately.
With petrol / Diesel engines
Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal
mode is selected by default.
Eco
Reduces energy consumption by restricting the
performance of the heating and air conditioning
systems, although it does not deactivate them.
Normal
Restores the vehicle’s original settings.
Sport
Enables more dynamic driving with action on the
power steering, accelerator and gear changes
(with an automatic gearbox).
Depending on version, with an EAT8
gearbox and the selector in position D
(except Sport mode), fully releasing the
accelerator pedal allows free-wheeling which
can save fuel.
A drop in engine speed is normal (rev counter
at idle, drop in engine noise).
With rechargeable hybrid
engine
Each time the ignition is switched on, Electric
mode is selected by default.
Electric
Allows driving using 100% electrical energy.
The maximum speed is approximately 84 mph
(135
km/h).
When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do
not allow the activation or retention of Electric
mode, the message "Electric mode currently
unavailable" is displayed on the instrument
panel. The vehicle automatically changes to
Hybrid mode.
If a blue LED comes on under the interior rear
view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle, this
confirms that you are driving in Electric mode.

Charging procedure
Connection
► Before charging, check that the gear selector
is in mode P and the ignition is off, otherwise
charging is impossible.
► Open the charging flap by pressing the top
right push-button, and check that there are
no foreign bodies on the vehicle's charging
connector.
The light guides in the flap come on white.
Domestic charging (mode 2)



► First, connect the charging cable from the
control unit to the domestic socket.
Charging the traction
battery (Rechargeable
hybrid)
For a full charge, follow the charging procedure
without interrupting it, until it stops automatically.
Charging may be performed either immediately
(by default) or deferred.
Deferred charging is set via the touch
screen or the MyCitroën application.
When the vehicle is connected, the following
information is displayed on the instrument panel:
–

Status of the battery (%).
–


Remaining range (miles or km).
–


Estimated charging time (calculation may take
a few seconds).
–


Charging speed (kW/h).
After the instrument panel has been put into
standby mode, this information can be displayed
again by unlocking the vehicle or opening a door

.
It is also possible to monitor the charging
progress using the MyCitroën
application.
For more information on Remote functions,
refer to the corresponding section.
Vehicle immobilised for up to 4 weeks
Park the vehicle in a covered area.
Connect the charging cable to supply power
to the traction battery.
Vehicle immobilised for 1 to 12
months
Discharge the traction battery down to 2 or
3 bars on the charge level indicator on the
instrument panel.
Do not connect the charging cable.
Always park the vehicle in a place with
temperatures between -10°C and 30°C
(parking in a place with extreme temperatures
can damage the traction battery).
Disconnect the black cable from the (-)
terminal of the accessory batteries.
Precautions
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles have
been developed in accordance with the
recommendations for maximum electromagnetic
field limits established by the ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection - 1998 Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices should consult a doctor to enquire
about any applicable precautionary measures, or
contact the manufacturer of their implanted
electronic medical device to check that it is
guaranteed to operate in an environment
compliant with the ICNIRP guidelines.
If in doubt , during charging, do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, near the charging
cable or the charging unit, even for a short time.
Before charging
Depending on the context:
► Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►

Have a professional electrician install
a dedicated domestic power socket or
accelerated charging unit (W

allbox)
compatible with the vehicle.
Use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle.
(During charging)
As a safety measure, the engine will
not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is
displayed on the instrument panel.
While charging is in progress, unlocking the
vehicle will cause the charging to stop.
If no action is taken on one of the openings
(door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the
vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and
charging will resume automatically.
Never work under the bonnet:
–

Some areas remain very hot, even an hour
after charging ends - risk of burns!
–


The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts
or strangulation!
After charging
Check that the charging flap is closed.
Do not leave the cable connected to the
domestic power socket - risk of short-circuit
